I hope the post to which I am replying was meant as a joke, but in case it wasn't:
quote:
You have done no thinking at all. Ever heard of a moon pool? It's basically a hol ein the boat which would do many things including pump new air into the boat, protect from waves, and you could also dump the crap down the hole.
Sounds good. How many of these would have been on the ark?
How do you get all the animals to them?
Most importanly, is the inclusion of these in the bible, or are they extrabiblical?
quote:
Second who says the animals were full grown? They could have been babies meaning not alot of crap.
I take it that you have no children.
Babies crap alot. And babies grow. Baby elephants, for example, crap a lot. And as they grow - over the course of a year - they crap even more. Plus, growing infants require lots of food.
Not to mention nurturing from parents. Or did Noah and his kine act as surrogates for all hte many thousands of 'babies'?
quote:
Third not every species was on the ark. ex: Not every dog, only the one containing all the dna needed in order to produce all the different kinds.
What is the evidence that this "superkind" existed? And how do we re-activate all of this suppressed DNA to produce new species and breeds?
quote:
Do your research, then you can embarass yourself on this forum!
Indeed.

Because there is much more at stake than confirming the historical event of Noah's Ark.
Like what?

Go ask Metatron, SLPx, John, et al. who would all prefer an in home visit from Jesus Christ Himself before they would believe.
In reality, I prefer to speak for myself.
I would like to see some actual evidence for a 10,000 year old creation and subsequent destruction by the Hebrew triabl deity.
Repeated assertions do not count. Special pleading does not count.
Bible verses do not count.
Lying for Jesus does not count.

I have tried for a year to get him to define those terms he uses as his amazing "evidence", but have had zero success.
He likes to make up his own terminology a lot.

So why don't you define "evidence" for us counselor. I didn't realize there was only one kind, although most evolutionists believe this to be true.
And once you give us an acceptable definition (you won't because it is way over your head), provide some guidelines as to how we should qualify the evidence. Or don't bother as this is probably way too difficult for you.
But if you do, I suggest you begin with defining "circumstantial" evidence. This might be a good place to start given the fact that you've built your entire belief in evolution solely on circumstantial evidence.
Why don;t you address the issues brought up to you before instead of pretending that they were not?
